Luna amicae

Luna amicae

A Poem by Aristophanes
"

At night, the moon seems to be our only witness of the darkest desires

"
Luna amicae

I want to venture once more into
The verdant fields of your abdomen
At the high dark hora, luna amicae
I'll venerate your vernal nudity
OH! I want to commit a venial sin
Once more, and cover my obscure
Verses with your vellum of honey odor
Cleave, from your visage, the obscuring
Veil that hides the nacre, where I was born,
Once. Is this amour of mine, for you, in vain?
Oh! That verdure of your eyes, I apprehend
By heart, could your love have a terminus?
Oh! This turbulence has a turpentine savor.
Turpitude nadir at the high dark hora!
Oh! How do I want to observe your nudity!
Except, all I seem to accomplish is obstinate
The exquisitely charming tranquility of you
This obstruction obviates my intentions to
Demonstrate, that I have been smitten by
The magnificently delightful stroke of your sex.

This is absolutely superb. The alliteration is fantastic! Seriously, I am a wee bit obsessed with alliteration these days, and "V" in a rather difficult sound to replicate as well as you have. And, it always amazes me how another sound works its way in there, too. The use of the "T" adds just that much more to the piece.

Now, for the content. I giggled. :) At first I thought you were using the moon to describe sex, but after looking up the meaning of the title, I believe you are using sex to describe the moon, no? Either way, it's a delightful piece, and I enjoyed it very much. :)
